A freind of mine has a 27 Activator with twin 200,s and liked choppers then tried bravos and loved them until he turned on the GPS. Control and handling was great but no speed. Then went to a set of ET,s and sold everything else. They where better across the board.

Yea, JC has been pushing the ET since the begining (but the four blade- which someone told me doesnt come in left handed and right handed- but who knows if that is true- I will have to research)

I think I will wind up with a 'family' prop and a speed prop. The thing I like about the bravo is it really gives me a decent low planning speed for when the kid is on board, and it igives you really good handling....so for a starter prop, it has worked out well.

We will be trying out a set of 30" bravos next weekend (a very generous costumer at accurate is loaning me a set for a few hours)..will be interesting to see the results

Canvases are done. Have a full boat cover for the driveway(not the easiest to get on, but is effective), a console cover, and I have what I call the 'quick cabin' canvas, which has velcro on it, can be attached to the handrails that run the length of the boat in front of the centerconsole and effectively make a small little cabin, to just have in case you want to change quick . Will try and post pics later

I dealt with AMC canvas in copaigue.....ask for Anthony, real good guy

Yeah.... I'm sure thats what it'll get used for- changing:grinser010:


I have a feeling that it'll be used more for the "something like that":evilb:

When OO releases SAW34 to me, it will sit at Don Frost for her turn to get the interior installed as there are other clients waiting for interior install


I should have a date by end-of-week when that will happen

Keep us posted with your canvas as that is work that can be done even while SAW34 is at OO. Because Idon't hink the canvas guy wants the have the hull at their place.
